First launched in 2001, 7Speaking is one of the major players in the online language learning market in France. However, a lack of digital marketing investment left the business struggling to protect its position against new competitors.

“We were building a digital marketing strategy from scratch, and from the start we kept a close eye on lead quality through our CRM system. The particular advantage that LinkedIn gives us is the quality of the leads that it generates and we’re able to see how that flows through into ROI. That’s why LinkedIn is one of the channels we’re focusing on going forward.”
